  Not at all as advertised. This is an added on apartment to a home. The unfinished counter in kitchen, causes your knees to abutt the open back of oven. Different furniture from picture. No wash/shower soaps, no coffee. Absolutely NO parking. We continuously had to park 10 to 15 minutes away. This property is a joke!

  Hi Helm, we take guest feedback seriously and we're sorry that your stay didn’t meet your expectations. After reviewing your comments with the homeowner, they’d like to share the following:
  - There is another vacation rental unit on-site, and other travelers may be present during your stay. This is noted in the listing to ensure guests are aware ahead of time.
  - The kitchen counter was expertly designed by an architect to sit adjacent to the stove, providing a unique Benihana-style cooking experience that fosters a communal and interactive atmosphere.
  - The white sofa pictured has recently been replaced with a high-quality, top-grain tan leather sofa.
  - Future guests can take comfort in knowing extra soaps are stored in the bathroom vanity for convenience.
  - While we provide a coffee maker, coffee isn't included and isn't advertised as an amenity.
  - Parking in San Diego, like in other cities, can sometimes be challenging. While free street parking is available on a first-come, first-served basis, as noted in the listing, we recommend using ride-share services or coordinating with us for driveway access if needed.
  We appreciate your feedback and are committed to ensuring a great experience for all our guests.

  The communication and expectations of the host was seamless and easy to follow. There were a few concerns we had with the locks on the front door windows not latching correctly which should definitely be addressed by owner for safety reasons.

• Pet friendly, but not people friendly.

  2/5

  Despite the great reviews I read before booking this property, unfortunately, my personal experience with the owner was not so nice. It started out ok, but I apparently asked too many questions.. he became rude asking if I am "slow or something" tells me I'm the most annoying person he has rented to asked my 13 year old daughter and I to leave( we ended up staying, but it was highly uncomfortable for the rest of our trip.) He actually excused his poor behavior with "I'm Norwegian, that's how we are" 🙄👎

  Hi Letasha, we’re sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet your expectations, and we take your feedback seriously.
  
  The homeowner mentioned they attempted to go above and beyond to assist you during your stay, including offering the use of their car at no cost. However, it seems there was a significant miscommunication, and we regret that it led to a situation where you felt uncomfortable. We strive to ensure that all guests have a positive and respectful experience, and we apologize if that wasn’t the case for you.
  
  Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Your feedback is valuable as we work to improve our guest interactions, and we hope that future stays are more aligned with your expectations
